Novena to the Infant Jesus of Prague

1st day:
O Baby Jesus, here I am at your feet. I turn to You that you are everything. I need your help so much! Give me, O Jesus, a look of pity and, since you are almighty, help me in my need ..
1 Pater, 1 Ave, 1 Glory

For your divine Childhood, O Jesus, grant me the grace that I ask you instantly (it expresses itself) if it conforms to your placated good and my true good. Do not look at my unworthiness, but at my faith and your infinite mercy.
Hymn: (to be repeated for the nine days together with the prayer)
Jesus, sweet memory, who gives the joys of the heart; but more than honey and all things, His presence is sweet. Nothing is sung more sweet, nothing is heard happier, nothing is thought sweeter than Jesus, Son of God.

Jesus, hope for those who repent, how compassionate you are for those who pray to you, how good for those who seek you, but what are you for those who find you?
Neither the language is enough to say it nor the writing to express: those who have tried can believe what it is to love Jesus. Be, Jesus, our joy you who are the future prize. May our glory be in you always for all centuries. Amen.
Let's pray:
God, who constituted the Only Begotten your Savior Son of mankind and ordered that he be called Jesus, grant propitious that of Him whose Holy Name we venerate on earth we can also enjoy the sight in heaven. For the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

2st day:
O splendor of the heavenly Father, in whose face the ray of divinity shines, I adore you deeply, while I confess to you true Son of God alive. I offer you, O Lord, the humble homage of my whole being. Deh! that I never have to separate myself from You, my highest Good.

O Child Jesus, whose forehead is surrounded by a crown, I recognize you as my absolute sovereign. I no longer want to serve the devil, my passions, sin. Reign, o Jesus, over this poor heart, and make it all yours forever.

5st day:
I contemplate you, sweetest Redeemer, dressed in a purple robe. It is Your royal uniform. How it speaks to me of blood! That Blood that you shed all over for me. Grant, oh baby Jesus, that I correspond to so much your sacrifice, and do not refuse, when you offer me some pain, to suffer with you and for yourself.

6st day:
O most lovely Child, in admiring you support the world, my heart is filled with joy. Among the countless beings you support, I am also there. You see me, you support me every moment, you keep me as your thing. Watch, or Jesus, over this humble being and help many of his needs.

7st day:
On your breast, O Child Jesus, a cross shines. It is the banner of our Redemption. I, too, or divine Savior, have my cross, which, although light, too often oppresses me. You help me to support it, so that you always carry it with fruit. You well know how weak and cowardly I am!

8st day:
Together with the Cross, on your breast I see, O Baby Jesus, a golden heart. It is the image of your heart, truly golden for infinite tenderness. You are the true friend, who generously lavishes himself, indeed immolates himself for his loved one. Still pour out on me, O Jesus, the ardor of your charity, and teach me to correspond for once to your love.
